It was true that they had never discussed wanting children before. It was also very true that it was incredibly soon after their wedding to even be thinking about it. Perhaps it was selfish to want to bring children into the world, even given the terrible state it was in now, but Jolene had always dreamt of having a family and, when it came down to it, everyone else was doing it (though she would never tell Santi that... no man would ever undestand what it was like to watch everyone get pregnant around you when you wanted it for yourself).
Watching the wheels turn in his head, she began to panic. Perhaps now was a bad time to tell him. What if he didn't even want children? But then there was that smile (goodness, but it sent a blush racing straight up her throat to her cheeks) and those words and... she giggled loudly and swatted at his arm. She figured he wouldn't have much objection to helping out with that part. "Santi! You're terrible." But she leapt at him and wrapped him in a tight hug anyway, lowering her voice to a near-whisper as she innocently asked, "When do you get off work?"
